About the job

Requirements

  • You can concentrate well and block out external distractions when a measurement requires it.
  • You have patience and continue searching step by step when the solution is not immediately visible.
  • You work accurately and feel responsible for safe and reliable work.
  • You ask questions, are open to feedback, and trust the expertise of experienced colleagues.
  • You think along, ask questions, and contribute your own ideas.
  • You are comfortable working outdoors and with variable working hours.
  • A category B driving licence is needed because the work involves traveling to different locations with measuring equipment and tools; you must also be physically able to carry materials. Applicants aged 18 or older without a licence, or who are unsure about the work, may discuss possible arrangements.
Responsibilities
  • Investigate, locate, and help resolve cable faults.

  • Inspect cables after they have been rerouted or welded.
  • Work with modern measuring equipment and contribute ideas for smart measurement methods.
  • Work with colleagues, groundworkers, and other contractors at changing locations.
  • Work on stations and projects throughout the Netherlands.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Rail specialists have an internal school: Strukton Academy develops training with practitioners, supported by classroom, project-based, and online learning.
  • Dutch employees receive pension support: the terms page lists a substantial employer contribution and different civil and rail pension funds.
  • Irregular work receives extra compensation: its Almere mechanical rail role lists night, weekend, and travel-time payments.

What critics are saying

  • Field schedules affect personal routines: the Almere maintenance position requires willingness to work irregular hours.
  • Employment terms depend on the business: Dutch civil and rail units follow different collective agreements and leave arrangements.
  • Compliance remediation remains a commitment: its Riyadh settlement received final approval in February 2026 and requires stronger controls.

What makes Strukton unique

  • Machinery crosses national boundaries: Strukton shares rail machines across its operating countries to improve equipment utilization.
  • Its energy products reuse transit power: the battery substation recovers energy from public transport for reuse.
  • Maintenance combines field feedback with sensors: its rail model integrates inspection trains, POSS monitoring, ground radar, and digital technician reports.
